Question

A car factory produces 100 cars in a day. If c is the total number of cars produced in d days, which equation represents the number of cars as a function of the number of days?

Answer 1

c=100d

c is the total, d is the factor
c is dependent variable, d independant

Answer 2

The equation that represents the number of cars as a function of the number of days will be:
`c=100d`

Explanation:

The factory produces 100 cars in a day.

For getting the total number of cars, we need to multiply 100 with the total number of days.

So, the total number of cars produced in
`d` days
`=100*d= 100d`

Given that, the total number of cars produced in
`d` days is
`c`.

So, the equation that represents the number of cars as a function of the number of days will be:
`c=100d`
